I am an old woman named after my mother |
|
My old man is another child that's grown old |
|
If dreams were lightnin' and thunder were desire |
|
This old house would've burned down a long time ago |
|
Make me an Angel that flies from Montgomery |
|
Make me a poster of an old rodeo |
|
Just give me one thing that I can hold onto |
|
To believe in this livin' is just a hard way to go |
|
When I was a young girl, well, I had me a cowboy |
|
Weren't much to look at just a free ramblin' man |
|
But that was a long time and no matter how I try |
|
The years just flow by like a broken down dam |
|
Make me an Angel that flies from Montgomery |
|
Make me a poster of an old rodeo |
|
Just give me one thing that I can hold onto |
|
To believe in this livin' is just a hard way to go |
|
There's flies in the kitchen, I can hear 'em in there buzzin' |
|
And I ain't done nothin' since I woke up today |
|
How the hell can a person go to work in the mornin' |
|
And come home in the evenin' and have nothin' to say? |
|
Make me an Angel that flies from Montgomery |
|
Make me a poster of an old rodeo |
|
Just give me one thing that I can hold onto |
|
To believe in this livin' is just a hard way to go |
|
To believe in this livin' is just a hard way to go |
